Last night I had these girls over to my house for a sleepover.  They are some of the girls in the bible study that I help lead & we were celebrating them finishing their finals!  “Finals” has been a constant prayer request over the last few weeks & we decided to have a sleepover to just relax, be silly, & enjoy not studying.  We rocked out to some LIPS on the XBox (my lip gloss be poppin’), made some indoor s’mores, gabbed & gabbed, and finally fell asleep to a movie.  It was a great night & I enjoyed staying up til about 2 in the morning with them!  I promised them that if the weather was nice today, we’d go out for a mini photo session before they had to head home.  The photos below are just a few of my favorites that we got.  The rest will be on Facebook shortly.  Thanks girls for letting me in on your fun! (any many thanks to Rachel, our youth intern, for helping me out!)

Each one of them is so gorgeous.  And they have equally gorgeous hearts.  I feel like a proud momma!

What is a holiday mini-session?  Well, for me, it’s a way to meet new & fun clients, and provide them with a quick, cost-effective holiday photo.  For you?  It’s 20 minutes out of your Saturday to get dressed up, visit the beautiful grounds of St. John’s College, & have fun with me getting a few professional pictures.

What do you get?  You get 20 minutes of personal shooting time with me.  It’s much less than the traditional 2 hour photo session, but it’s just enough time to get a few poses for your holiday card or photo gifts.  In addition, after your session, you will receive a link to your own personal on-line gallery of about 5 to 10 proofs from your session.  From these proofs, you will be able to choose one for a high-resolution digital image for your own personal use.  Now you can take this digital image & use in it in your family’s Christmas card at places like Shutterfly, Snapfish, etc.  Or you can get it printed & have ready-made holiday gifts!  The only thing you’re not allowed to do is sell it!  Along with your high-resolution digital image, you will be given a smaller, web-sized image for use in e-mailing, Facebook, MySpace, etc.  (These smaller size images are not suitable for printing)

So, it’s that simple!  All you have to do is sign up.  There’s no need to be a previous client, and no need to purchase more than what I’ve laid out above.  Eighty bucks, 5 to 10 images to view, one digital image for you to use…the end!  Here are the times available…and keep checking back.  As slots get filled, I’ll let you know on here!  Thanks, and invite your friends!  I love meeting new people!

As a thank you to all of my past clients, I’d like to offer to you a custom Christmas Card template. You all are the reason I do what I love, and I’d like to say thank you by making this photo Christmas card. The card seen above can be changed to fit your family with a digital photograph. It measures 5×7. You can choose to have it emailed to you and printed where you like, or I can have them professionally printed for you at $1.00 per card (including a matching white envelope). Thank you again!
